this kit has only two runners, and it has pretty good details. but you might have to consider that this kit actually has sky blue runners instead of white, and it only has 90 degrees of articulation with no clear beam saber parts, so you might paint one of beam saber or make a hole for the effect part. except those, this is recommended for those who wants easy kits.

This is a very, very simple kit that was released back in 2001. There's not even a transparent effects part for the beam saber. It's very quick and easy to build, but the end result isn't very satisfying. Lots of very obviously hollow parts. No mechanical detail. Horrible articulation.

The HG RGM-79 GM is definitely a good choice for anyone looking for affordable army building kits. This kit specifically is rather dated, and comparing the finished product to the more modern recreations of the Rx-78 and Guncannon, there’s things to be desired. This kit is definitely one that deserves a remaster. Being that it’s already a dated kit, it’s design is rather limited when it comes to poses. The design of the waist also hinders high kicks, you won’t get up to a 90 Degree angle. The arms and legs are not double jointed, there’s no abdomen crunch but there is some side-to-side movement with a dedicated piece to hide the peg. Pose potential leaves much to be desired, but is definitely far from worthless. My kit holds together fine without any modifications, it is a very solid finished product that holds together lovely and can get some acceptable battle poses, but don’t expect anything too crazy. Worth mentioning is the hand design. The included beam spray gun is very nice, but if you want your GM to hold other weapons, i.e. the bullpup machine gun from HG GM Sniper 2, he will hold that just fine. Overall, a solid kit with some decent articulation, and despite its older design it holds up well with modern kits. 8/10 Recommended for Army Building or a cheap and quick build that will still look great.
